131: Emperor's remains

"I've never seen this little one act so obedient before!"

"She doesn't even want the divine fruit anymore."

"That's a full six thousand of them!"

"Alright, stop fussing."

"We will be back very soon."

"Be good! This is an order."

Qin Feng rubbed Dragon Baby's head and said sternly.

This was not the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but the Burial Grounds.

The level of danger was no less than that of a forbidden zone.

Furthermore, Qin Feng's trip this time was to the inner circle.

"I...!"

Dragon Baby wanted to say something but stopped, her small hands trembling slightly as she let go of Qin Feng.

Her master's orders could not be defied.

She could only obediently stay in the outer circle.

"Master, remember to come back quickly. I... I will miss you."

Dragon Baby's voice trembled slightly as she turned and descended.

It felt quite like she was heroically facing death.

And Qingqing transformed into her true form; with a flash of cyan light, a massive Divine Beast Qingluan appeared instantly.

Its feathers were smooth and soft, its wingspan blocking out the sky, and its form was agile.

Its back was as flat and even as a Cultivation Field.

"Imperial Son!"

"You are going to Di Luo City? That is in the inner circle!"

"It is too dangerous."

Xi Yun's face turned slightly pale as she knelt before Qin Feng and said.

"No matter. Danger is the thing I fear the least."

"Help me look after Dragon Baby well and arrange a quiet place for her to Cultivate."

Qin Feng waved his hand and said with an indifferent expression.

"V-very well, Imperial Son!"

"Whoosh...!"

Xi Yun took out an ancient animal hide and handed it to Qin Feng.

"Imperial Son, this is a map of the Burial Grounds. It marks many places that must not be entered."

"You can take a look at it when you have time."

Xi Yun was also very generous.

She gave her own copy of the map to Qin Feng.

In the Burial Grounds, the value of a map was no less than that of a Supreme Divine Weapon.

Xi Yun only had one copy.

"Thank you!"

"Whoosh!"

Qin Feng took out a storage ring, filled it with five hundred divine fruit, and tossed it to Xi Yun.

"We're off."

Immediately, Qin Feng sat cross-legged and said.

"Respectfully sending off the Imperial Son!"

Xi Yun knelt again, bowing her head as she called out.

"Whoosh...!"

With a flash of cyan light, they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Dragon Baby stood at the palace entrance, watching everyone disappear, feeling extremely upset.

She wanted to cry, but didn't dare to do so loudly.

Only her large eyes continued to shed bean-sized tears.

"Why does that little guy Zhu Yan get to go?"

"But I'm not allowed to."

"Master is biased, Master is biased."

Dragon Baby clenched her fists and muttered.

"No, I must Cultivate properly. I cannot let Master look down on me."

Dragon Baby gritted her teeth and stamped her foot, making up her mind.

Hidden within her body were dozens of ancient adult True Dragon Bones; she hadn't even finished digesting the Runes and Treasured Art within them.

With her childish Heart-Nature, she only knew how to play whenever she had time.

How could she possibly Cultivate seriously?

Now that she had been left in the outer circle by Qin Feng.

She finally realized that she needed to Cultivate seriously.

"Dragon Baby, stop crying."

"I will take you to a quiet place to wait for the Imperial Son to return!"

Xi Yun descended, scooped up the aggrieved Dragon Baby, and comforted her.

"Mm!"

Dragon Baby nodded vigorously in Xi Yun's arms.

...

Qin Feng sat on the back of the Divine Beast Qingluan, spreading out the ancient animal hide with both hands to examine it.

On the animal hide was a map scaled down countless times.

The terrain of the Burial Grounds was flat, with few hills or mountain ranges.

The only things easy to distinguish were the various terrifying major factions.

The animal hide marked over three thousand places that could not be forcibly entered, and over two thousand dangerous places.

Over three hundred places potentially contained Great Emperors Corpse.

And Di Luo City was one of those dangerous places.

Not only did it contain Great Emperors Corpse, but Great Emperors also haunted it.

After looking at it for a long time, Qin Feng could not memorize it all.

He could only determine his current approximate location and direction.

The Burial Grounds were truly too vast.

They were several times larger than the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

"Hui Lan, you look at the map and lead the way. I'm going to rest for a bit."

Qin Feng handed the map to Hui Lan and let her guide the way.

He could just lie back and relax.

"Very well, Young Master."

Hui Lan took the animal hide and began to examine it carefully.

Meanwhile, Zhu Yan, with its shifty eyes, remained silent the whole time.

"Little thing, where are the treasures you found?"

"Aren't you going to take them out and share?"

Qin Feng noticed something was off about it, grabbed it, and said.

"Papa, no... there really aren't any good things."

"Just thirteen Supreme Divine Weapons and one Quasi-Emperor Weapon, that's all."

Zhu Yan's eyes flickered as it replied reluctantly.

"Not bad. Split them with me."

Qin Feng said without blushing or skipping a beat.

"Papa... can I keep the Quasi-Emperor Weapon for myself?"

"Fine, just give me seven Supreme Divine Weapons."

Qin Feng spread his hands, agreeing to Zhu Yan's request.

"Whoosh, whoosh...!"

Zhu Yan took out the fourteen treasures; some still carried the scent of soil, while others were rusted.

But there was no denying they were truly Supreme Divine Weapons.

Among them, one Supreme Divine Weapon was a piece of bone.

It looked quite strange.

Within the bone, specks of starlight flowed, and Runes shone.

Qin Feng chose seven of them, and put away the remaining six.

However, he did not put away that piece of bone; instead, he kept examining it.

Because this piece of bone did not look like it belonged to a Yao Beast; rather, it looked like a human's.

To be able to Cultivate bone to this level was truly rare.

"Crack...!"

Qin Feng exerted sudden force with both arms, cracking the bone open.

Immediately, the starlight within the bone began to overflow.

Individual Runes drifted around in the air.

Qin Feng hurriedly covered the crack to stop the Runes from leaking out.

"Whoosh, whoosh...!"

At the same time, Qin Feng activated the Swallowing Heaven Emperor Technique, and a suction force pulled all the Runes and starlight from the bone into his body.

The Swallowing Heaven Emperor Technique devoured everything of others.

Even a single bone could be absorbed.

In less than a moment, the bone lost its luster.

"Whoosh, whoosh...!"

A gust of wind blew, and the bone vanished with the wind, dissipating between heaven and earth.

A Supreme Divine Weapon in the form of a bone was thus ruined.

But Qin Feng could feel that within the bones of his right hand, there were now many more Runes and starlight.

By hiding the Runes within his bones, his right hand became as indestructible as a Supreme Divine Weapon.

"Let's try to see if I can devour other Supreme Divine Weapons."

Qin Feng muttered in his mind.

Then, he took out another Supreme Divine Weapon.

It was a sword, covered in rust, but within the sword were still many ancient Runes.

"Whoosh, whoosh...!"

Qin Feng activated the Swallowing Heaven Emperor Technique, but the Supreme Divine Weapon remained unmoved; the Runes only trembled slightly.

"It seems I can only devour bone-type items."

"For weapon-types, I'll have to wait for the third level."

Qin Feng was slightly disappointed and put the Supreme Divine Weapon away.

"Little thing, another day we'll go dig up some Great Emperors Corpse."

"Are you confident?"

Qin Feng rubbed Zhu Yan's furry head and said.

"Papa, there's no time like the present. I feel like there's a Great Emperors Corpse nearby."

"How about we just land and dig it up right now?"

Zhu Yan rolled its eyes and replied.

Hui Lan: "Young Master, the map clearly marks that a Great Emperor once fell here."
